Nicki is very unprofessional. Being late is not an excuse. If you live in that area you know how bad traffic is. Nicki should be fired from this show. After all, she did not judge the contestant based on talent. She judged them based on sexual stimulation, based on physical appearance. Nicki does not have the talent to sing. She can rap but not sing. Get this bitch out of the show. Your ratings will slightly increase if you take this unprofessional bitch who is not comfortable with her natural self out of your show. Everything about this bitch is fake.

I absolutely love Angie. I’m going to be voting for her a lot this season! I’m really glad I didn’t have to miss this episode, since I’m usually working my shift at DISH when American Idol is on. My DISH Hopper automatically records all the primetime shows on Fox every night though, so I was able to get caught up as soon as I got back to my apartment.

I agree with you RAHRAH.....get rid of Nicki and whoever hired her. If she's there next year I'll quit watching AI. She's overrated and just a big fake. I'd like to see her without the wigs and makeup......She'd just be another ugly girl walking the streets.

Niki minj's sexual overtones demean the other judges. She should pay more attention to the music and not her attractions. It is not only demeaning to the contestents but it embarrasses her fellow judges. My favouret judge with the most critical ear is Keith Urbin this year. The DOG goes for who he thinks he can promote but Miria trys to difuse what Niki has already said and is embarrised. Please let Keith know that people are paying attention to his critecs and tell Niki to cool it on the sexual overtones unless you want people to stop watching. that would not be good for ratings.

I have watched American Idol for years. That blonde,red, yelllow headed joke Nicki, is really bringing down my love for the show. She's a complete idiot. Get rid of her and get a judge that knows MUSIC. not a clown that tries to tell someone how to dress.

Nicki was very unprofessional last night and owes everyone an apology. Her sitting at the judges table with sun glasses and her hoodie up, hiding her from the studio audience, was very disrespectful. She needs to be put on probation/supended/fired publically and given some direction on how to present herself on the judging panel. She was my favorite until tonight but she blew it. Fess up and apologize to the American Idol fans.

Nicki is a disgrace to the Idol brand. If a man made the same kind of comments there would be outrage. And the "waffle analogy".....too bizarre. The producers need to have a "come to Jesus" chat with her. Also, I thought the theme was indulgent. Who cares what songs the other Idols sang? Lukewarm night

Please,please, revamp this show! Fire all the judges and bring in professional individuals. Nicki is a joke! Who is she and what qualifications does she have to judge. What a bizarre human being!

Will not watch the rest of the season. Hey AI......................did you read what I wrote? I'm not the only one to change the channel.

And, enough with the fake applause and cheering!!!!!!!!!

Nicki needs to go. She spends most of the show messing with her wig. She also seems bored all the time. Not a good judge for the show. Who in the world picked her. Her language is so foul. Do you not realize the is a family show. A lot of young people watch the show. What a Mistake you made picking her.

I had zero respect for nicki until last night she was the only one that said it like it was. Curtis should of NEVER went home. Come on what was everyone home with nothing to do Wednesday night and decided to watch Idol and vote because anyone that has been following the show from the beginning would have not voted him off. Taking all performances into consideration Paul Jolley should of been the one to go, the only solid performance he has had was Wednesday night, which proves to me more people watched and voted This week than any other week. As for the judges not saving Curtis just made me sick. Idol should consider giving 2 saves one for the girl and one for the guys until they get down to the final 5 then maybe only 1 save total. I was a huge Keith Urban fan and watching him on Idol has really been a turn off for me. Don't believe he adds anything to the show and in the end this could hurt his image. Back to Curtis at first I was so mad and disgusted at the outcome until today maybe this was gods way of giving him a better avenue to have his voice heard. because of the strong comment from Nicki (thanks again Nicki, i stood up and was clapping for what you said) it's now getting national attention which will actually be to Curtis's benefit had he went ahead and even won he wouldn't get the national attention he is currently receiving. God works is such wonderful ways. Curtis I pray you get a recording contract as all the judges have said you and your voice and the messages you pass on through music is exactly what people need in their life's right now. God bless you Curtis and I'll purchase any music you make.

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American.

She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American too.

Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks.

There is, however, one exception. A girl named Kristen has not gone along with the crowd.

The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different.

“Because I am not an American.”

“Then”, asks the teacher, “What are you?”

“I’m a proud Canadian,” boasts the little girl.

The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Kristen why she is a Canadian.

“Well, my mom and dad are Canadians, so I’m a Canadian too.”

The teacher is now angry. “That’s no reason,” she says loudly. “What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?”

A pause, and a smile. “Then,” says Kristen, “I’d be an American.”
